Happy birthday friend
Happy Sunday friends. I hope you’ve had a good weekend so far; mine has been quiet but that’s the way I like it! Are you all going to be going mad around the shops tomorrow? I don’t like shopping at the best of times so I think I’ll leave it a little while before I venture out (although I do fancy a mooch around IKEA sometime soon lol!). Let’s hope everyone is sensible and keeps their distance in the mad scramble in Primark.
Today I’m sharing a card I made for a friend’s birthday. I am using my new Colorado Craft Company stamp (which is soooo cute); when my budget allows I will definitely be getting some more of the Anita Jeram range. Here is my card:
I also decorated the inside:
I stamped my images with Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured them with my promarkers (I used the photo on the back of the stamp as my colouring guide as I really liked the whimsical way they were coloured). I used a scalloped die to cut out the image panel and also to cut the patterned paper. I die cut some clouds and added them to the panel with liquid glue and stamped my sentiment with Versafine onyx black ink. The panels were added to my card blank and I simply added 3 adhesive pearls as a finishing touch. I added two strips of the patterned paper to the inside of my card and stamped the larger sentiment from the stamp set. A really cute card I think.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Dragonfly Dreams challenge – feature a creature
Crafty Friends challenge – ladies/girls
Creative Craft challenge – include an animal
CCC Digi Creations challenge – include an animal
Sweet Stampers challenge – lots of layers
SSS Wednesday challenge – happy birthday
Unicorn challenge – include an animal
Creative Knockouts challenge – for the girls
There seems to be lots of animal themed challenges around this week/month. I have lots of new cards to share with you so hopefully will be back with another card soon. Until then, take care and continue to follow the rules for now.
Lots of love,
